ing in safe use beforehand.
The sewing machine should not be used for any

Installation
All cords should be secured at least 25 mm away
from any moving parts. Furthermore, do not ex-
cessively bend the cords or secure them too firmly
with staples, otherwise there is the danger that fire
or electric shocks could occur.
Install the belt covers to the machine head and
motor.
If using a work table which has casters, the cast-
ers should be secured in such a way so that they
cannot move.
Be sure to wear protective goggles and gloves
when handling the lubricating oil, so that no oil
gets into your eyes or onto your skin, otherwise
inflammation can result.
Furthermore, do not drink the oil under any cir-
cumstances, as it can cause vomiting and diar-
rhoea.
Keep the oil out of the reach of children.
